Only if I'm in shape and want to show off. Otherwise I'm drinking and eating shitty food and being a fat fuck.

If you're a natural, a week off should cause you to lose about a years worth of gains.

If you use the term "on holiday" to refer to a vacation, it doesn't matter, because you're obviously a 115 lb, dick-loving twink anyway.

Sounds like fun.

Why not train....?

Different gym, different people...you will have great workouts.

this is false, I was a complete natural for 8 years before messing with pro hormones, now 10 years later following gh15 protocals. I've taken a week off as a natty several times, sometimes came back stronger, the human body isn't completely worthless without hormones, maybe some people's are, but generally no.

Yea, I can confirm right now that it's not true. Natty's seem to have to train more often than users, but a week or two won't do a damn thing.

If you have access to a gym in your hotel or something, by all means take advantage of it. Might as well do some damage control while you are there.

There are different ways of working out while on holiday. You don't always have to be in the gym: jogging, hiking, biking, surfing, etc. are all legitimate alternative workouts. I just spent a week scuba diving off Lanai and boogie boarding on Little Beach.

If you are on vaca the only thing you should be working on is 12oz curls.

High reps of push ups on some hot bitches is not wrong as well!

Great cardio and an ab workout at the same time.
